You’re the 🐐


This is awesome.


I just zapped two people on Amethyst via NWC via Cashu.me.

Fucking awesome.

When Lightning addresses?


Update: three people.


nostr:npub13tkusutqsx0yjr9szc4vhkxf5fkhne3aka84kxm9jwgp9yj20uzsnyllwf ?


you already have one: npub.cash


What 🤯


nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z can we get a simple paste button for the Amethyst NWC string?


No place to put NWC link


when zapU? new event kind that has encrypted cashu...... in it. similar to a zap but in cashu.
the claimer of cashu posts back decrypted version on nostr to make it a legit zap. right now zaps are not verifiable (unless you filter based on whitelist which is not an exact science as far as i understand).


Will work on getting NWC added to nostr:npub15dc33fyg3cpd9r58vlqge2hh8dy6hkkrjxkhluv2xpyfreqkmsesesyv6e this week. Zap-commerce with 🥜s coming #soon™!

Get some cashu.me nuts!


we're almost there, this has been my dream all along


I think iOS app store dictators didn't like it, I remember nostr:npub16c0nh3dnadzqpm76uctf5hqhe2lny344zsmpm6feee9p5rdxaa9q586nvr saying something like that


What is the difference from the current way of zapping?


Hey nostr:npub12rv5lskctqxxs2c8rf2zlzc7xx3qpvzs3w4etgemauy9thegr43sf485vg I have downloaded eNuts android app from github. I have some sats in there but I do not know how to connect eNuts to my Nostr profile.


Thanks for the info


Nut 🥜🤙🧡


Epic 🥜


Use Nostur on iOS


What the hell is a mint?


The App Store is a black box. They enforce their rules somewhat arbitrarily. It's often hard to know why exactly something was denied or approved.

IMHO it might make sense to try and see if it goes through. We are preparing to give it another shot in the coming weeks to see if we can get NWC deployed on Primal for iOS.


How to get connection string?


does @primal support NWC on ios?


Can't zap https://image.nostr.build/9457e082bf706fd259911f7684542b1364e6cc123bfe04945f5728866d13f331.jpg this post..


What mint? No mints found…
What now?


eNuts only allows you to use your npub to sync contacts so far.


There is no settings option and there is no nwc option


Same question here


Onward 🫡


Shouldn't we know something about the mints first? Since we're putting our trust in them... I haven't seen much discussion about the mints at all.


For us Peter McCormacks’ out here it would be nice to have a BTC Sessions type instructional on cashu(Ben does an awsome job). I think it would go a long way in growing and onboarding people to the platform.love the drive, of the developers explaining it in layman’s terms to us dumbasses is a bit lacking


I know nothing about e-cash or mints.  How do I get e-cash from a mint? I did get into cashu.me and sent some sats via lightning into cashu.me from one of my other lightning wallets. But I'm stuck on the e-cash bit and also what are mints. Looks like it might be wonderful, but I would like more info. Thanks.


From the cashu.space FAQ

Mints are Lightning node runners that have decided to let you use their Lightning infrastructure to offer you a service. They will act as a custodian for your satoshis on the Lightning network, while they issue ecash to you, the user. You can think of it as in free banking, where the bank issues their own bank notes that is backed by gold.


From: nostr:npub1u8cqn3pl0dj70x64pkd33nrzl8k0um4ftnvn3lpjas89wp5r3uaslqtx5g


Will zaps be sent when I open cashu.me again? Or do I have to have it open at the same time? I know when using NWC through mutiny, pending zaps are processed when I open the app. Not sure if this is an exclusive thing with them tho.

Diversify your balance across multiple mints that have built a reputation


Got it


Ya. Not for me at all, thanks.


This is beautiful. Great job Calle! Thank you for all the hard work on Cashu!


Also I don't want anyone to be my custodian of my Sats.

Hi, like the wallet, works fine between mints and with mutiny’s federation. Quite reluctant to use alby considering the way to get stable ln address requires my email .  How to add sats to cashu without Kyc ?


Great post 👍


You can get eCash by sending sats on Lightning. Gotta have Lightning enabled wallet first.


minibits also offers one. And I have not tried it, but I assume you can import the wallet to cashu.me also. So the only thing is that you have to open minibits app from time to time to collect the zaps.


It has nothing to do with Alby!


It exists! Made by the man nostr:npub1rxysxnjkhrmqd3ey73dp9n5y5yvyzcs64acc9g0k2epcpwwyya4spvhnp8 himself

https://docs.cashu.space/resources/learn#tutorials


Nope


Minibits have a lightning address! 🤙 I use that. Fun stuff!


I am test using it. So far awesome. What I noticed so far, is I have to reopen the app if I want to see instant receive.

Do you "have" a wallet with ecash, or you just have ecash tokens saved locally? I assume the second, or?


Yep. Nobody can send it for you, you'll have to open your wallet. Ecash is a bearer asset, it must be stored by you, received by you, sent by you.


You can't import in cashu.me yet but it should work the other way round.


If I use TOR in amethyst and TOR in cashu.me, and use nostr wallet connect, will it somehow expose my ISP provided IP address somehow? Sorry, this looks like magic to me.


I didn't want to do that, it will only process zaps that are executed while the wallet is open. I'll consider the other option. What do you think?


Onward 🫡


In amethyst you just need to do a long tap on the zap button in whatever note and you can configure it


yeah but no paste button


does it work?

if your phone doesn't leak anything, sounds like you have a great setup.


Yep, but it does require to break down the copied link etc. Maybe the request is to simply have a paste like in primal


But how do we learn about the reputations of mints. I don't want to just pick one from a list. I don't see many people talking about them (that could be because I'm not following the right people). All I mean to say is we need some resources for this.


Don't even need to encrypt it just p2pk locked


Oh yep its true, let's see if nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z or nostr:npub1w4uswmv6lu9yel005l3qgheysmr7tk9uvwluddznju3nuxalevvs2d0jr5 can hear us 🫂🧡

Yes.

Can I use cashu.me on different devices simultaneously?


Needing to have the wallet open at the time of hitting the zap button feels like bad UX to me. The average person will not do this.

The receive process for Minibits is nice, where all my incoming zaps get processed when I open the app.


Did you look at the resources i provided? This is a very new concept and as such it's best to diversify your ecash across several mints. Probably best to use multiple of the most recommended mints. But also keep in mind you shouldn't have more sats there than youre willing to lose.


THATS NUTS 🌰 🥜


This is actually for me to revisit because I haven't taken the time to learn about this yet

nostr:nevent1qqsd6hllsntvcuhzmhmldduyyzsxverv87sm5dytlcc4pf2pa5y8y3sprpmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68yct5dyhxxmmdqgs9pk20ctv9srrg9vr354p03v0rrgsqkpggh2u45va77zz4mu5p6ccrqsqqqqqp0tm98h


is it possible to have a dedicated local storage for cashu.me? Because I don't want to mess with the ecash stored locally.
Any way to work in a web container?


STAY HUMBLE STACK SATS 🫡


Onward 🫡


not the same wallet, since it's not account based

yet


yet as in not that it's going to be account-based but yet as in soon you'll be able to sync your devices to each other (soon TM)


But will that keep everything stored locally or also on a server?


sync over nostr is what I'm working on


Tried several times in iPhone Safari over last days. Just a white screen? 🤷🏼♂


Thanks, just thinking how to add sats to the system without using Kyc. Quite a challenge for me.  The Satoshi I have from zaps transfer pretty well , simple, fast . Now it’s time to find interesting real life transactions 😊


Satoshi which I have in the system transfer fine, the problem I have is to find a simple and kyc independent way to add bitcoin to the system . Any suggestions


ezells


How do you get it?


You just install the app, and it gives you automatically one. You can even change the name of it I think.


Now you can zap Ecash on Primal

Great post 👍


where do i find mints?


Sorry about that, I initially thought the links you posted were actual mints, but then saw that they are the exact kind of resource I was asking about. My mistake. Thank you for that.


no worries friend, glad I could help 🫂


Is the question how to get non-kyc satoshi? PoW. Write something; get some zaps. Get a paid-in-bitcoin job. Sell something for sats.


Phoenix and Muun are half-decent ways to go from on-chain to Lightning if that’s what you’re after… could also run your own node 👏


Onward 🫡


Thanks, running a node is a bit too much. Do you mean running the node and earning Satoshi for offering channels?
people are happy to pay for what I do but don’t use bitcoin,  changing fiat to bitcoin quite easy with Kyc less so with p2p but still to do it you usually use some sort of id.  I am afraid I am getting paranoid, probably too much time spent in the bitcoin/Nostr bubble.

I now know what you mean by 'keep it open'. It works! At first I tried doing it all on my phone which was a no go, but now it all makes sense. I just need to keep it open on my laptop. It also works on mutiny. We are winning!


It should be there. Right beside the QR sign. You just need to hold down the lightning symbol to get access.
